Sorry I did try but couldn't find the code button.

It sort of works.
Do I need separate code for B4A and B4I as typeface not available in B4I and Font not available in B4A
I'm trying to have the icon above the text, commented out code works perfectly in B4A

My Code
B4X:
    LoadDrawer
'    #if b4a
'    Dim cs As CSBuilder
'    cs.Initialize
'    cs.Initialize.color(Colors.White).Size(20).Typeface(Typeface.FONTAWESOME).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
'    Typeface(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD).Append(CRLF).Size(14).Append("Hex 2 Dec").PopAll
'    SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL.Text = cs
'    #end if
    
    Dim cs As CSBuilder
    cs.Initialize.Color(Colors.White).Font(Font.CreateFontAwesome(20)).VerticalAlign(-10).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Font(Font.DEFAULT).Append(CRLF).Append("Hex").PopAll
    XUIViewsUtils.SetTextOrCSBuilderToLabel(SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL, cs)

I don't know how to correct this.
B4X:
Dim cs As CSBuilder
    cs.Initialize
    #if b4a
    cs.Initialize.color(Colors.White).Size(20).Typeface(Typeface.FONTAWESOME).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Typeface(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD).Append(CRLF).Size(14).Append("Calculators").PopAll
    SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL.Text = cs
    #else if B4I
    cs.Initialize.Color(Colors.White).Font(Font.CreateFontAwesome(20)).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Font(Font.DEFAULT).Append(CRLF).Append("Hex").PopAll
    XUIViewsUtils.SetTextOrCSBuilderToLabel(SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL, cs)
    #end if
So the B4A code creates this button

The B4I creates this button

test:
B4X:
SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL.As(Label).SizeToFit

B4X:
    Dim cs As CSBuilder
    #if b4a
    cs.Initialize.Alignment("ALIGN_CENTER").color(Colors.White).Size(20).Typeface(Typeface.FONTAWESOME).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Typeface(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD).Append(CRLF).Size(14).Append("Calculators").PopAll
    XUIViewsUtils.SetTextOrCSBuilderToLabel(SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL, cs)
    #else if B4I
    cs.Initialize.Alignment("ALIGN_CENTER").Color(Colors.White).Font(Font.CreateFontAwesome(20)).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Font(Font.DEFAULT).Append(CRLF).Append("Hex").PopAll
    XUIViewsUtils.SetTextOrCSBuilderToLabel(SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL, cs)
    SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL.As(Label).SizeToFit
    #end if

Thank you I tried that. Also tried selecting multi line in the designer.
I have made the button huge
It just will not display a second line in Ios

if you have multiline set to true

update Swiftbutton:
B4X:
    Dim cs As CSBuilder
    #if b4a
    cs.Initialize.Alignment("ALIGN_CENTER").color(Colors.White).Size(20).Typeface(Typeface.FONTAWESOME).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Typeface(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD).Append(CRLF).Size(14).Append("Calculators").PopAll
    XUIViewsUtils.SetTextOrCSBuilderToLabel(SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL, cs)
    #else if B4I
    cs.Initialize.Alignment("ALIGN_CENTER").Color(Colors.White).Font(Font.CreateFontAwesome(20)).VerticalAlign(1dip).Append(Chr(0xF1EC)).Pop. _
    Font(Font.DEFAULT).Append(CRLF).Append("Hex").PopAll
    XUIViewsUtils.SetTextOrCSBuilderToLabel(SwiftBtnCalc.xLBL, cs)
    #end if
    SwiftBtnCalc.Update
